Overview

If you work with multiple VibeHub accounts (e.g., personal and work), profiles let you switch between them easily without logging in and out.

​
Commands

​

​
Switch Profile

​

​

​

​
Profile Workflow

​
Setting Up Multiple Profiles

# Login to your personal account (default profile)
vibe login

# Login to your work account
vibe login --profile work

# Login to a client account
vibe login --profile client

​
Working with Different Accounts

# Work on personal project
vibe use default
cd ~/personal/my-project
vibe push

# Switch to work
vibe use work
cd ~/work/company-project
vibe push

# Switch to client
vibe use client
cd ~/freelance/client-project
vibe push

​
Profile Storage

Profiles are stored in ~/.vibehub/credentials: 
~/.vibehub/
├── credentials
│   ├── default.json
│   ├── work.json
│   └── client.json
└── config.json
Each profile has its own credential file.

​
Profile Names

Profile names:
  • Can contain letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores
  • Are case-sensitive
  • Cannot contain spaces
  • Default profile is named default
Good names:
  • work
  • personal
  • client-projectx
  • company_internal

​
Managing Profiles

​
Delete a Profile

To remove a profile, log out from it: 
vibe logout --profile client
This removes the stored credentials for that profile.

​
Rename a Profile

There’s no direct rename command. To rename:
  1. Login with the new profile name
  2. Logout from the old profile name
# Login with new name
vibe login --profile new-name
# This reuses the same credentials if same account

# Remove old profile
vibe logout --profile old-name

​
Check Current Profile

vibe whoami
Output: 
Logged in as: your.email@gmail.com
Profile: work

​
Common Use Cases

Keep personal and work VibeHub accounts separate:
vibe login                    # personal (default)
vibe login --profile work     # work account

# When working on personal projects
vibe use default

# When working on work projects
vibe use work
Freelancers can manage multiple client accounts:
vibe login --profile client-a
vibe login --profile client-b
vibe login --profile client-c

# Switch as needed
vibe use client-a
Test with different accounts:
vibe login --profile test-account
# Do testing
vibe logout --profile test-account

​
Tips

Set up shell aliases for quick profile switching:
alias vibe-work='vibe use work'
alias vibe-personal='vibe use default'

​
Troubleshooting

​
Wrong Profile Active

If commands are using the wrong account: 
# Check current profile
vibe whoami

# Switch to correct profile
vibe use correct-profile

​
Profile Not Found

Error: Profile 'unknown' not found.
The profile doesn’t exist. Create it with: 
vibe login --profile unknown
